Would this be a risky purchase?

no mention of mileage so could be due a cambelt change?
FSH or evidence of a decent history is definately advised.
also i would expect some documention of a remap if they have decatted as thats potentially risky, also baileys DV are renound to be crap and should be replaced immediately with standard recirc or a forge recirc etc

MUCH better mate. Has a very nice spec and mapped by one of the best around.
also the servicing has been carried out by the company that i use for mine and done my engine build and they are extremely well recommended.
i would rather pay the extra for this one then the previous without a shadow of a doubt

Pay the extra for the second one. Doesn't look like much expense has been spared on bits!
